Adjustment of artillery fire includes making corrections for direction, distance, and elevation in the settings of the sighting devices (deflection, level, and sight), the time fuse, or fire control instruments. Adjustment is made from the results of observing the place where the shells fall (explosions or by tracers) relative to the target.
